RE: Which cantaor are you listening to? (in reply to Leñador

Thanks guys for your replies.

I can't listen to Rocio Marquez for too long - like a few minutes. Her pitch sways too much and drives me nuts. I can look at her all day though.

La Tremendita is kinda opposite. I've noticed her from all the Rocio Molina videos and quite liked her style.

I haven't listened to Duqeunde's latest or Jesus Mendez on his own. I'll have to dig that up from somewhere.

I hadn't also heard Remedio Amaya's albums either.

As for the old stuff, yeah. I don't mind a healthy dose of Aguejetas & Manuel Torre when my brain gets a little confused. But how could you not like Cigala?

Agreed. He was my segue into developing a taste for cante in the first place. Now I like both the older and the more contemporary singers. As of late, I keep going back to this one:



And, while you didn't ask for dance videos, I've always thought this one was pretty badass:

I was first introduced to Pastora Pavon via a great clip posted on Norman's site. That site's now down. Does anyone know what happened to it? Norman?

arash,i saw guadiana this summer in jerez,he had sing bad.
Maybe sometimes he sing good,but not this time.


I have more problems to say someone is a "bad" singer than saying someone is bad guitarist. I can more or less easily find 'bad' guitar players.
But with singers i have the 'problem' that meanwhile i almost likem all lol (was not the case earlier, in fact i only liked very few some years ago).
Meanwhile for me its like each voice has its distinctive qualities and style and is enjoyable,,, ok there is this wannabe camaron phenomenon , the commercialization, etc. etc. but i also like cigala, duquende and lot lot more as much as i like the old singers.

Just've been listening to Canelita Fiesta. Gotta love that raw stuff.

Anyone else like him that you guys recommend?

RE: Antonio Reyes por tangos (in reply to orsonw

Lately i've been listening a lot to Antonio Reyes and Rancapino Chico.
The guitarist was rushing things a bit too much, you can see Antonio trying
to slow it down all the time
I prefer Jero to acompany him.
Great singer!!
